    What have you done to your car lately?

    Was actually about to say it looks quite a bit higher.

    It will settle lower, and that's with the sub box out too (after)

    That adds a fair bit of weight back in.

    Re: What have you done to your car lately?

    Today...

    Stripped the whole intake system out as the piping was too short from when I had the pod on. And it had split then slipped off causing heaps bad heatsoak. Bought a new flexi pipe and refitted it all.

    Stripped interior out. Front seats, and the whole rear of the van. Vacuumed the whole interior and everything that belongs in the interior.

    Cleaned the dash, and all the door trims and removed a few years worth of dust, dirt and grime.

    Decided to leave the mdf lining out of the rear as it looked a bit shit. Cleaned, oiled and fitted the black plastic trim that was originally in the rear.

    Cleaned and conditioned the leather seats and refitted them.

    Got some 19mm plywood from work and used the old plywood as a template to cut out a new rear floor as the old one was splitting and breaking down from getting wet etc. Then finished the ply with a hard wearing gray carpet and refitted the floor. Then paint stripped the metal trim that joined the ply and the floor of the van resprayed it satin black so it looks new and a hell of a lot cleaner.

    decided to fit the Vauxhall badge that I bought a few weeks ago. Sprayed it satin black aswell. Some little pikey bastard nicked my original vauxhall griffin badge.

    Cleaned all the interior windows and sprayed bug killer into my wing mirrors as I have a usual mirror spider. Gave it a quick wash outside but it started getting dark so il run it through the carwash tomorrow.

    All in prep for tomorrow's eurofest!

    Installed a boost gauge on the AH sri-t. Running off the fpr no flutter works perfect. As long as it is ment to hit 10 psi.

    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....
